Siheyuan Stories: No More Picking Fights, Just Focus on Building a Better Life
How Can I Search All of Tomato and Not Find a Single Period-Era Novel from a Man's Perspective Where He Doesn't Go to the Countryside???
No going to the countryside, no going to the countryside, no going to the countryside. I'm saying it three times because it's important!!! Working in the city is great. Otherwise, so many people wouldn't refuse to go to the countryside and do hard labor. Preferably no CP. The male lead can have male and female friends, but not in the main story...
Looking for Courtyard House Stories with No Forced Dumbing Down and a Historically Authentic Setting
Looking for books similar to Four-Hearts Courtyard: Kill to Stop Killing. I want one that fits the period and doesn't dumb down everyone in the courtyard. No more of Jia Zhangshi throwing tantrums, He Yuzhu acting like a lovesick puppy, or some mindless moral grandstanding in their defense. Even the TV series wasn't like that.

The calligraphy is quite good, considered a fine piece for a courtyard house. However, the hanging space is too large; 1.2 Cubic meters would have been sufficient. The rest is up to the individual artist to truly appreciate its beauty.
The courtyard was handled quite well, but the black market and traditional Chinese medicine aspects were really rough around the edges 🤦 But for a courtyard house theme... What more could you ask for? It's passable, which is pretty good. Good grief... I only read the beginning and thought it was passable... But the rest was just flying fast! 😅 Did they really just write whatever came to mind? It's a historical fiction! Couldn't they at least have a tiny bit of common sense?
The story is a bit short. If you don't like it, sister-in-law, I can come over for dumplings! 🥟
It's not bad. It has its own interpretation, though it's rather bland. It doesn't follow the fixed route of the courtyard house, but rather has its own storyline and the courtyard house storyline, with the two storylines intertwined. The protagonist focuses on medical skills without overly relying on the space to cause trouble, which is good.
It's great! The storyline of "The Courtyard House" is excellent 👍. It's just that the main character isn't really involved! A: Who's the main character again? B: Uh... I'll go back and check!
After my harrowing journey through time, I was overjoyed and sang "The Blood Song of the Three Realms." The Lord of the Stars discovered me and took me to the "Journey of the Misty Heavens," where I entered the "Myriad Realms." There, I encountered the "God of Slaughter," known as "Cataclysm," who sat on the "Throne of Divine Seal" and tried to kill me.
The flaws don't detract from its overall beauty; it's considered top-quality among courtyard houses.
That's interesting. But when I see Wang Kaixuan later on, I wonder if they're going to include characters from Tomb Raider Chronicles? If so, it would be quite interesting. Personally, I think the protagonist will become a top-notch and famous traditional Chinese medicine doctor later on. Characters from Tomb Raider Chronicles will come to the protagonist when they're injured.
If Lou Xiao'e doesn't marry him, she should at least prevent him from marrying Xu Damao.
It's pretty good, at least for now. There's not much hostility, just lots of everyday family drama and mundane life. That's what normal courtyard house life is like. There's no need for so much hostility. It's just the struggles of a group of ordinary people in a special environment. Isn't society the same today?
